Obvious Issue with One Timers

Making a slow pass to set up a one timer across the ice to someone out around the faceoff circles or so has a WAY higher success rate in this game than a great triangle set up leading to an easy backdoor wide open net. The goalies move laterally so **** quick in tight on a quick pass for a tap in on an open net, but make a bad slow pass from 60 feet out and you have an easy empty netter for a goal because the goalie is stuck in mid and cant slide over.

Nothing about this game makes any sense anymore. shooting from close to net? not as good as flicking the puck at the net from the blue line as soon as you enter the zone. playing positional defense? Not as good as being out of position and just skating around mashing poke check. News flash, your player should be slow as all hell if youre skating around holding poke check the enter time. Hit a guy and knock the puck loose? Not as good as being the guy knocked over, youll get up and react and pick up the puck way quicker than the guy that laid the hit.

  • one timers should be manual input and timed. its ridic how you can wait holding L2 and up and the game does it for you.

    Jesus, even NHL 13 you could wiff on one timers with poor timing. There is some assist but you could still miss it.
